Shroud: "Not-so-Good Agent Valorant Skye"

Shroud: Skye The Not Very Good Agent of Valorant

Despite being considered one of the most complete agents in Valorant, not all players are fond of Skye, even popular Twitch streamer Michael ‘shroud’ Grzesiek stated that he won’t be using this character again any time soon.

Skye was released in valorant on patch 1.1 update. and become an Australian Agent in the game.

He has a combination of skills that can be considered complete with flash, stun and healing. Even so, Shroud was not very satisfied with this one agent.

Shroud’s opinion about Skye

In his YouTube video on November 5th entitled “My Thoughts on Skye”, Shroud shares his thoughts on Skye.

According to Shroud, although Skye is certainly a good agent, her limitations make Shroud choose another agent.

“I feel Breach is still better. Looks like Breach is a better version of Skye,” said Shroud .

The limitations that Shroud meant came from Skye’s skills not being good for players who like to play solo queues.

“Skye is not a very good PUB (public game) character for me because he relies on your coordination and team setup. You have to be vocal for them, flash for them. Work together. But PUB was never like that. PUB is more like, an individual show.”
– Michael ‘shroud’ Grzesiek –

Indeed, when you play solo queue in Valorant, sometimes not all of your teammates will activate their voice chat or even want to communicate at all.

And this will certainly be a problem for Skye users if they want to setup flash, stun or do team healing.

Because of that, Shroud who plays Valorant on public servers more often feels that Skye is not a suitable agent for him

“This might be the last time I play Skye. There’s no real reason for me to use it again. Not my style.”

Of course Skye is a very new agent and players are still experimenting with this agent to find the best way to play.

Other than that, we haven’t seen Skye in the pro scene of Valorant, and if Skye is really better in a coordinated team, we might see this agent more often in esports tournaments in the future!
